They did all the 2011 duallys last week, was sadly a total joke and no real tech.

It's always a joke, they never carry spare parts and drive like dumbasses.
But, it's still fun to watch.

This poor truck has been a bit neglected over the last year. Time for some TLC.
Just bought brand-spankin'-new 285/75/R16E's for it.
Gonna do some fluid changes, give it a nice cleaning, buy a new column, and put the interior back together.
Also, I might have a line on F-350 springs and blocks, steering, and panhard for eventual Dana 60 swap.

BTW, have done a bit of work recently on the truck. It looks alot better and not so sad and messy. I've done a good bit of maintenance like brakes, fluid changes, fixing burnt out bulbs, new headlights and lens cleanup, door shimming, etc.
Plans for the reasonable future include:
Dana 60 swap (stock first then RSK)
New turbo-back exhaust
TS Performance chip
Bilstein 4600 shocks
New Tires:

Got those Bilsteins:
Last time I updated I had new 33ish tires. Now I have new 35ish tires
:
New lights and grille:
New Interior:
Superduty Cab lights (had these before):
Overall from its good side:
Still working on those performance parts. Really want them after getting 315's. Got my JF updates done

I put a locker in the Sterling too, but can't find any pictures on my phone unfortunately.

Didn't realize those were 35 all terrains you put on. Are you an all terrain fanboi yet? hah Truck looks good! Some day I will have a clean OBS. What kind of locker in the Sterling?

I like them. I think the KO2's are pretty badass and got them for $200 a tire. Interested to see how they are in the snow. My Coopers blew and these BFGs are "snow rated". It's a Lockrite, the only lunchbox I could get for the 10.25. Impressed with that too. The lockers and tires made a big difference in mild stuff like Mt. Lake and towing offroad.
